Buying Tips

Hunters need a secure and comfortable perch that's easy to pack and carry on the move. Safety and functionality are key when selecting your treestand and hunting gear.

Your stand's platform is where you will sit and place hunting equipment. Think about the size and stability of the platform desired. For example, hang-on stands typically offer less platform space than a climbing or tripod stand. The mounting system of your treestand should be compatible with trees that are natural to your hunting environment.

Aluminum and steel are the two most common materials used in the construction of treestands. Newer carbon materials are lighter in weight than steel and aluminum, yet maintain the same amount of rigidity.

The weight of your treestand makes a difference. Think about how far you'll need to carry your stand. Weigh the benefits of size vs. heft. A larger stand is more comfortable and lets you hold multiple tools and equipment, but a more compact stand is easier to transport.

Expert Advice

The right blinds help you achieve high-level concealment. Consider a system that is lightweight with an easy packing system for easy transport. Chair blinds keep you comfortable in the great outdoors, while hard-sided blinds systems are ideal for hunting in harsh conditions.

Some hunting blinds are built to house multiple hunters, while others are intended for just a single person and their gear.

A gun rest on your stand or blind is ideal for both convenience and comfort. Shoot your crossbow or compound bow while staying out-of-sight with a treestand or blind from DICK'S Sporting Goods.
